The Clapping Song (Randall Standridge, Concert Band, Grade 3)

[@johnnytheyoungmaestro]

I don't think I've ever heard a piece fully written in 3/2 time, let alone a piece as groovy as this! Such an awesome piece!! :)

[@randallstandridge]

Thank you, Johnny. It's a weird one, that's for sure!

[@Nolan_Bett]

I disrespectfully disagree. 🤫🧏🏼‍♂️🗿🦅🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸

[@VanoYTX]

As a trombonist, this piece rocks

[@randallstandridge]

As a composer, I’m glad

[@skinnypete1585]

It really does

IT ROCKED SO HARD??? played it in my area's all county concert, as a trombone can say SO MUCH FUN

[@UnkownFreak]

same dude i tried playing this in my band and we had to shorten it because we had a concert but it was a blast playing it

[@theoneguy4]

Hello, Mr Standridge! This piece is an amazing piece that we’re playing for our spring concert! Thank you for blessing us with your awesome music!

[@retr0rapt0r58]

Our band is doing a fully Randall standradge concert and this is one of the songs we’re doing❤

[@RachelJenkins-i8d]

I love the ending so much. It reminds of the score from Honey I Shrunk the Kids. This whole piece is really great. Bravo.

[@whatssofunny4103]

Playing bells, easy part but such a bop at the same time

[@StAaron317]

played this at a band camp at SWOSU, fire piece and as a trombonist, just yes.

[@bblundy01]

oooo we must’ve went to the same camp! i played alto sax. this piece rocks! definitely one of my favorite pieces we played there

[@emanuelolvera1571]

Yess I was there, it was w the symphonic right?

[@AusterEngineer]

Symphonic band! My favorite one we played, I played alto sax

[@Sparkfox-]

I just heard this at our All-county concert, our band did a great job with this phenomenal piece! It was really fun to hear the synchronized clapping.

[@WhaleofaT1me]

I love the feel of this piece! Very energetic and lively. I ADORE how you incorporated the claps into the music.

[@randallstandridge]

Thank you!

I'm a horn player playing this right now, and it's so fun blasting those high notes. I love this piece!

[@blossombadgley4686]

As a tubist, ahhhh! We never play so many quarter notes and I'm fighting for my life but it's truly an awesome piece!!

[@joechambers4965]

Bassoon part is so fun 🤤🤩🤩

[@zacharymckinnon6832]

That ending was so cute and perfect👏🏿👏🏿👏🏿👏🏿

[@randallstandridge]

Thank you, the piece is supposed to be somewhat humorous

[@Nolan_Bett]

Nuh uh

[@MicahiLove]

I would definitely use the word playful for this piece. So much fun. Sometimes this reminds me of the OST to the first Honey, I Shrunk the Kids ❤

[@LilyMaione]

Its so fun to play!! The vibraslap ending is awesome

[@mr.videogames2283]

This is literally one of my favorite pieces of yours. You’re my favorite composer

[@Nolan_Bett]

💀

[@Nolan_Bett]

Each to their own buddy

[@KingOfEnder645]

indeed no percussionists were harmed, but the E-flat on the marimba was totally DEVASTATED

[@luna96noel]

😂 as a current mallet player of this piece ...yes

[@GamerSisters4evs]

Wouldn't know anything about marimba but try having a look at the flute part bars 91-121

[@neoncat6820]

I play the marimba for this song, and yes I can confirm the Eb is very much getting abused

[@scorn-52]

Having a "percussion 5" and it's in 3/2 is crazy

[@armyenforcement3023]

This makes me feel proud to be a trombone at 1:55

[@vocaluka697]

“No percussionists were harmed in the making of this video” 😂

[@Nolan_Bett]

I wish they were

[@LilyMaione]

Percussionists were harmed

[@LilyMaione]

Nolan as a trumpet you only have to play trumpet and clap. I play 4 different instruments in this song. Percussion is brutal

[@miguelmelendez5959]

Guys wake up randle D standridge just dropped

[@ilovecarti1629]

"Babe wake up, Randall Standridge released a new song"

[@zhanghaoming8361]

[@AceAdams21]

As a clarinetist for 2 years this peice is complicating a bit but it gets easier the more practice is put in. This is one of my favorites, KEEP IT UPPP!!! :D

[@Momba121]

0:47 is the best part hands down

[@eggggg12345]

I see what you did there 👏

[@Nolan_Bett]

Hmmm

[@butyesterday]

Pls respond to a small school trombonist playing this for spring concert make my year fr💯👍

[@luna96noel]

I'm playing the marimba part for this and having to play the triangle and wind chimes at the same time cuz we got no auxiliary players right now. 😅 Luckily it's a simple enough rhythm that can be played with 1 hand so I got an extra lol.

[@neoncat6820]

As a current marimba player of this song that sounds painful

[@TH3L1V1NGD3ADG1RL]

We played this today during our concert evaluation, safe to say it was just about everyone’s favorite piece. -French horn player

[@corakrueger612]

I love the trombone part in this

[@Nolan_Bett]

I don’t

[@dappermcquackster5185]

Will this ever get added to Spotify?

[@randallstandridge]

Very soon. I have a new album dropping soon
